    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    Yes. It looks like this on 28.1 when you first select the destination.

    Naming Your New Car

    Mine is still Infinite improbability but sometimes the kids refer to it as the tardis

    New owner, styling thoughts?

    The orbitals are no longer great value but they do look good (at least to me). They are at rimetrix now. The one’s in my profile pic are sprayed with satin black plastidip which is dead easy and makes for simple gutter rash repairs. They really do just look like a 19” wheel to the untrained eye.

    Supercharger - Blaxland, NSW

    OK, maybe we organise the saddest picnic ever at the Telstra RIM box for the week starting the 13th? I’m in the Blue mountains lga (barely, I’m in the special box they put at the top of Mt York) and it is only 55km away, within my lga, and regen harvesting for the entire 1000 metres down

    I miss Android Auto - phone mounting solutions that you rate?

    Me too. I find it the best solution for face ID when I drive long distances. They are on Amazon AU for around $60 either a standard or charging holder. Being made of a relatively pliant material they are silent and whilst they only come with one cradle they do come with both the left and right...

    Question about buying a charger

    I did the mud flaps. Cheap and easy and they work. The ones I have required one small hole to be made in the front plastic wheel arch protector. Don’t be the person who thinks the wheel has to come off to drill it. Left then Right full steering lock works fine!

    NRMA fast charging network

    They contacted me 2 weeks ago and we did a 45min MS Teams interview on the EV experience and that was one of the topics. I did not get the survey though!

    Sell crashed 2021 Tesla Model 3 SR+ (Sydney) Locked

    I’m guessing something along the line of “Only done 800km. The first 799.999 were pretty good”

    Aftermarket 20” wheels

    Hi, I'd suggest going to the Tesla M3 facebook page and their buy/swap/sell. The original 20's come up for sale quite often as they are a cast wheel which does not suit some people. Other than that the Tsportline flow forged option seems to be very popular as an overseas order. It all depends on...

    Orbital

    Give me a week or 2 and that shouldn't be a problem

    Orbital

    If anybody is curious then I have installed these now. I plastidipped them in matt black to make for (theoretically) very easy gutter rash repairs. They lock in very well and protect the edge of the rims.

    watch your power meter after fitting a PW@

    It sometimes turns out to be the dodgy new neighbours sneaking over to your fuse box with a 100 amp cable 'just to help power the lights' for their warehouse rave. :)

    watch your power meter after fitting a PW@

    I can't speak for your setup but I have 3 phase and how the system works in practice is exactly how you describe. If I was consuming 6kw evenly across the phases then 2 of them would be drawing a total of 4kw from the grid. The battery would then be powering the other phase with 6kw. 2kw for...

    watch your power meter after fitting a PW@

    Is your supply 3 or single phase?
